Nice ! There is a dockerized version but a binary is very interesting ! > [@Tailscale running on controller](https://www.wago.community/t/tailscale-running-on-controller/796): > > Hi, has anyone had any success installing Tailscale-client on the controller? I’ve tried the dockerized “tailscaled” withouth any luck - and for now ended up with ZeroTier. I’ve also tried the “standard” curl-installation command but that doesn’t recognize the Linux distro (CC100) ---

We could create an IPK package ---

Yes a IPK. that would be nice. I would like a work opkg server that we could get packages from. Then It could be easier when updates is made. ---

I prefer to use the Tailscale docker container. docker run -d –name=tailscaled –restart=unless-stopped –network=host -v /var/lib:/var/lib -v /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun -v /var/lib/tailscale:/var/lib/tailscale -e TS\_ROUTES=\< ip range \>/24 -e TS\_AUTHKEY=\< key \> –cap-add=NET\_ADMIN –cap-add=NET\_RAW tailscale/tailscale Enjoy! ---

Bra greier! Would this survive a firmware update? ---

I’m not sure, I think a firmware upgrade would erease all the files on the PLC. And the script places the file in /usr/bin
